The Halloween outing.

Some of the classic Winnebagos braved saint helens for the weekend.  There were parades and haunted houses.  We took in the parade and toured the town.  

Terry found some friends to hangout with. 

And when he put on his thinking hat no one stood to close to him. 

And then there was the dump station in Rainier

OK what is this RV?

I found this in Newport oregon last week.  But who made it? 

New jewelry for me.

Yea it's not common for me to look at jewelry but I was afraid I would loose my old wedding ring since I lost some weight.  That's 62.8 pounds to be exact.   What do you think ?

Kind of matches the original ring of one from 38 years ago.  We bought it at a little jewelry shop in florence oregon. 

My ring is the one without the diamond. 

I'm so proud of our government.

In honor of our government shutdown, and how many of the voters have been  inconvenienced,  lets be sure to vote for them again.  My only plan is to keep from paying more retirement pay to more politicians.  And when everyone of them is dead and gone we can start the game over again.  Oh I guess that won't work either.  Never mind this post.  

But I did take smokey back to Les Schwab and get the hoses to the tires on this side.  You can see the two braided hoses are stretched tight.  We'll. this is how they look now. 

My goal has been reached

Today I got up and weighted myself,  like I do most days.   Only today was the least I have weighted for I don't know how long. And since we were going to weigh in this morning, not our regular day for WW but we are heading to the coast for a week, I put on my lightest clothes and drove down to the WW store.  They open up at 7:00 AM on Friday so it was kind of dark out or I might have walked down.  Anyway I made my goal weight. This is a weight my doctor said was a healty weight.  So the next step is to keep within 2 pounds above or below my goal weight for 6 weeks and then I get the prestigious award of LIFETIME MEMBER.  That means Halloween might be kind of lean around our house. 

I found a Bago at Lake Tahoe.

Hard to believe but right here in the Stateline NV area I found this beauty. 

Did I tell you I miss my Bagos. 

Were home again

After 2,100 miles on the car and a couple of weeks condo camping we were ready to come home.  Our sons wedding went as planned, except for the ring bearer needing some help to close a gash in the head and missing the wedding.  And there was no trouble with the car. 
But the "owner education" at the condo in Lake Tahoe was more than upsetting.  We have only been a Worldmark owner for 19 years and they really wanted us to update our ownership by giving them more money.  Fat chance that will happen.
But we really enjoy our RV's when we stay closer to home.  And the condos we use are really top notch when going farther away.
